This celebrity is overly enthusiastic!

Chapter 266 Prosthetic Body
Isn't this female employee's experience a microcosm of David's family's plight?

All the family members were employees of the same company, and their children had all been admitted to Arasaka High School. The whole family was looking forward to a bright future, but the mother was brutally murdered.

David stared at the photo of himself and his mother, tears streaming down his face like a child who had done something wrong; blood seeped from his nose.

The guilt overwhelmed him, causing him to faint, which terrified Lucy who was beside him.

When he woke up again, he was already at the cyborg doctor's place, who warned David that he was now on the verge of falling into an abyss.

He prescribed David one last dose of medication, a military-grade formula, nine times the standard dosage.

Leaving the shady clinic, the two walked the streets of Night City. Lucy could no longer bear David continuing to push himself like this and told him to slow down and not push himself too hard.

But David told Lucy that he couldn't let his guard down yet, because of Mann and his mother's wishes.

He told Lucy about how he had accidentally killed an innocent woman, and felt deep remorse and pain for the murders he had committed along the way.

David felt that even if he wasn't cyberpsychotic, the things he did were no different from those of a cyberpsychotic, and he began to deny his own worth.

Right now, he desperately needs Lucy by his side to support him.

From David's tone, Li Xiaoyu could also detect a hint of resentment in his voice. He was complaining that Lucy didn't understand him, didn't do missions with him, and spent her days diving into cyberspace for no apparent reason.

Seeing Lucy, played by Fan Binbin, with her cheeks twitching slightly and her blue eyes filled with grievance and heartache, Li Xiaoyu felt particularly distressed.

Lucy is clearly working herself to the bone for David every day, but she can't tell him the truth.

Because once she confessed, it would be tantamount to telling David that she was the one who killed Mann and Dorio, and she couldn't afford the consequences of the confession.

Moreover, David's mental state isn't very good right now, and who knows what consequences his words might have.

Being misunderstood by the one you love most, and having no way to express your suffering, is a truly heartbreaking feeling!

However, from David's perspective, it feels like Lucy is constantly drifting away from him.

He opened his heart to Lucy and told her everything, but Lucy always kept things from him and held back. David still couldn't get into Lucy's heart.

So much so that when a very disappointed David told Lucy he wanted to break up, not only was Lucy flustered and shocked, but Li Xiaoyu also felt as if she had been hit hard.

Just as Lucy was about to explain something, she sensed that another hacker was trying to recover David's data, so she had to put aside her personal feelings and deal with this trouble.

Perhaps it was because she was preoccupied, perhaps it was because of her unstable emotions, or perhaps it was because the previous successful assassination made Lucy lower her guard.

During this elimination operation, Lucy fell directly into the enemy's trap and was captured.

The people who made the move were Faraday, the middleman who had already sided with Arasaka, and Kivi, who had been turned against them!
Many viewers were shocked, including Zhou Liming. However, he quickly recalled several clips about Qi Wei that had been shown earlier in the film, all of which hinted that she had been up to something behind the scenes.

After a little thought about how Qiwei, a supporting character, was portrayed in the film, Zhou Liming could understand why Qiwei would betray him.

First of all, after Faraday found Kivi, he must have found out what Lucy had done and how she had gotten into trouble with Arasaka!

And David was actually a guinea pig targeted by Arasaka! The reason they didn't capture David was simply to collect more data on his use of Sianwistan; he would be captured for research sooner or later anyway.

With David and Lucy, a pair of brilliant duo, on the team, being targeted by the behemoth Arasaka means certain death.

The old friends, the Mann couple, are no longer here, and Qiwei's departure from the team, now led by the newcomer David, is also in line with the behavioral logic of people in Night City.

Qiwei needed to find another way out, and Faraday just happened to provide her with one.

Faraday, having captured Lucy, extracted all the information from her brain, learning not only the cause and effect of events but also that Lucy was the hacker who defected from Arasaka.

Faraday was overjoyed; Lucy became the key to deepening his cooperation with Arasaka.

Lucy didn't come home all night, and David was very worried, but now Faraday had assigned him an incredibly lucrative task.

David was well aware of his physical condition and had all his immunosuppressants on, determined to gamble everything on this big job and secure a future for the team and Lucy.

Zhou Xiaoyu checked her phone. There was still nearly an hour of plot to go. David would definitely be able to rescue Lucy from Faraday. That was for sure!
The mission to seize the Arasaka transport vehicle was extremely dangerous, and David was under great physical strain.

Despite Rebecca's advice, he repeatedly activated the Sinweistan, successfully blocking the Arasaka convoy, seizing the target cargo, and completing the mission.

The action scenes were still exciting and thrilling, but Li Xiaoyu wasn't as thrilled as before.
She knew that it was all a play orchestrated by director Arasaka, and that the entire mission was a conspiracy against David.

The mission requires David to steal cargo from Arasaka's transport truck, which is called Cybertronian, a 'gift' specially prepared by Arasaka for David.

Military Technology had previously commissioned Faraday to collect and steal data on this mecha weapon.

Now, a large number of military technology personnel are about to surround the team, and the team members realize that they have been set up.

But now is not the time to think about such things. Just as everyone was sinking into despair, Lucy, controlled by Faraday, called David.
David was told that the only way to escape this desperate crisis was to wear the military-grade experimental large-scale prosthetic device that even the military science institute had to send a huge convoy to seize, and fight his way out!
Arasaka's purpose in doing this was merely to squeeze the last bit of value out of David, this quasi-cyber psychopath, and to collect more usage data for this experimental equipment.

As the director of the movie, who played the character Black Dream who died in the second film, said, powerful cybernetic implants can devour the soul. David, after a series of battles, was already extremely exhausted and on the verge of a precipice.

If a prosthetic body were installed, death would be certain.

Just as David hesitated, he heard Lucy say to him, "I believe in you!"

When Li Xiaoyu saw David, who had just been sweating profusely and hesitant, suddenly become incredibly determined, her eyes instantly welled up with tears.

David finally received the approval he had longed for from his lover, even though it was fake, he still made his decision.

The traitor Qiwei debugged the installation data in a very short time.

Only Rebecca was worried about David's health; she knew that once David was fitted with this huge device, he would definitely die!
My God, how could the plot be so hopeless? Surrounded by a large force of military technology outside, and with Arasaka and the traitors putting on a show from within...
The goal is to force this poor young man, David, to burn himself out and fight desperately!

This cyberpunk world is disgusting!
Rebecca screamed and tried to stop him, but David still took off his yellow jacket and started the installation program.
The prosthetic limbs were removed, and various mysterious needles and tubes from the prosthetic body were inserted into David's body. He let out an extremely painful, tooth-grinding scream, and a dangerous red color filled the entire screen.

Seeing that some audience members couldn't bear to watch David's miserable state, Li Xiaoyu left her seat and exited the stage.
